We’ve been waiting a long time for a truly fantastic po’ boy in this town, and now PARISH FOOD AND GOODS has finally given us one – actually, it’s provided three. Served on crackly fresh-baked French bread, the sandwich comes with a choice of shrimp, sweet sausage or our favorite, fried oysters. The downstairs market also makes a mean BLT, with locally raised pork belly flanked by fresh red and fried green tomatoes. If you’re in serious carnivore mode, the muffuletta with salami, mortadella, ham and provolone should fit the bill. less...

Once you’ve eaten at KOOL KORNERS on 14th Street, you’re in the club — you’re officially an Atlantan. But first you have to participate in the ritual: Wait patiently in line (which snakes out the front door at lunch hour), order a classic Cuban sandwich from the counter, and relish every last bite from either the hood of your car or the dilapidated picnic table out back. Roast pork, ham, Swiss cheese, tomato and pickles pressed between slices of warm, crusty bread — there’s simply no better sandwich in town. less...

There’s so much to love at Midtown’s FABIANO’S ITALIAN DELI, but you can’t do any better than the “#1.” A double-fister of a sandwich, the #1 is a daunting stack of prosciutto, capicola and pepperoni with provolone or fresh mozzarella and paper-thin slices of tomato. Don’t count calories, just go with it. Eating this sandwich is a mood-altering experience — try it on one of our frequent rainy days.

If your heart and belly long for a time when “have a nice day” was more than an efficient way to dismiss customers, and sandwiches were portable handfuls of comfort food, T.W. COLLINS is calling you. From its location in the ground floor of a century-old house in Inman Park, “friendly grocer” owner Todd Collins offers warm smiles and delicious sandwiches. The Funky Monkey Jane of crunchy peanut butter, bananas, bacon and Nutella will make you wish for a snow day. The Lake Avenue Sloppy Joe, barely contained between two clouds of eggy bun, practically had a friend weeping over her departed grandma. “775 Lake Ave. 404-577-7224.” less...

When you’re jonesing to wrap your mouth around a mammoth hoagie, there’s no place better than NEW YORKER DELI. The mile-long menu covers just about every combination of ingredients that can fit between two slices of bread. Displaced East Coasters will want the NYC-correct Reuben, while those who bemoan their land-locked fate in Atlanta should order a Po’ Boy or Noe’s Fishwich with peppers, onions and jack cheese. Tables are hard to come by here, so be prepared to eat in your car or at your desk if you’re in a hurry. This is also a great place to pick up side dishes and salads to make life a little easier come suppertime with the family. “322 Pharr Road, 404-240-0260. www.newyorkerdeli.comless...

Located in the hip Westside, PANGAEA (Greek for “all lands”) makes good on the promise with sandwiches from Mexico, Cuba, Vietnam, the Middle East, Italy and America. Our favorites are the Vietnamese banh mi. Both the lemongrass barbecued pork and firecracker shrimp are authentic, made with extremely crusty baguettes. The meat is accompanied by sliced fresh jalapenos, cilantro and pickled daikon and carrots. The restaurant is open every day except Sunday until 3 p.m. “1082 Huff Road. 404-350-8787.” less...

753 Cherokee Ave. 404-627-4790 This tiny take-out shop with a few tables is located across from Zoo Atlanta. We love to sit there eating a sandwich that heaps a meat, a cheese, perhaps arugula or herbs, and a designer pesto or infused mayo on country Italian from the Bread Garden. Meanwhile we pity the poor fools across the street noshing at the horrific McDonald’s done up to resemble a safari outpost. There usually is a daily sandwich special, along with a menu of favorites, a flawless chicken Caesar salad and occasional fresh baked goods - weird scones, fat muffins and cookies as big as your hand. Call ahead. Hours seem to be irregular. less...
